With just a few minutes remaining and the Falcons trailing by three, star safety Jessie Bates III made a play to keep Atlanta in the game. As the opposing running back rumbled his way, Bates punched the ball free for a fumble, which a teammate hopped on to give the ball back to the Atlanta offense. Bates went on to tally eight total tackles and two forced fumbles in this one, as the Falcons came back to win this one in overtime, 36-30, on Oct. 3, 2024.
